I believe that my friends and family would best describe me as loyal, committed, thoughtful and a true friend. I have maintained relationships with childhood friends and made new friendships that will last a lifetime. I met amazing people in college and through work and sports. They make me laugh, keep me grounded and we are always there for each other when times get rough. I enjoy weekends spent outdoors, going on hikes with my dogs, Nash and River, and fishing. I enjoy exploring new places and look forward to new adventures with a family of my own. I am known to be fun and sociable and thrive when I am around people. I have a rewarding career as a school psychologist. My students are always challenging me and they make me a better person. I have been working with children from ages 4-13 for over 17 years. I am at a point in my life where I am ready to devote myself to motherhood. I appreciate all of the wonderful things life has to offer. I hope that someday I can share my love and life with my child. I greatly look forward to becoming a mom and know that I can give so much of myself to a child.
